Three-dimensional cytoskeletal organization of detergent-treated epithelial African green monkey kidney cells (BSC-1) and chick embryo fibroblasts was studied in whole-mount preparations visualized in a high voltage electron microscope. Stereo images are generated at both low and high magnification to reveal both overall cytoskeletal morphology and details of the structural continuity of differ...

Analysis of purified Oriboca virions by neutral, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis indicated the presence of three structural polypeptides designated V-1, V-2, and V-3 on the basis of their relative electrophoretic mobilities in 8% gels. Polypeptides V-2 and V-3 are glycopeptides associated with the virion envelope as demonstrated by the preferential incorporation of lab...

gait rehabilitation using body weight support on a treadmill is a recommended rehabilitation technique for neurological injuries, such as spinal cord injury. in this paper, a new robotic orthosis is presented for treadmill training. in the presented design the criteria such as low inertia of robot components, backdrivability, high safety and degrees of freedom based on human walking are conside...

Oncornaviruses, which contain a virion-associated protein kinase, were found to possess phosphoproteins as virion structural components. One major phosphoprotein common to strains of laboratory and wild mouse oncornaviruses and a strain of feline leukemia virus was shown to be a polypeptide of about 12, 000 mol wt. In addition to this, the Kirsten strain of murine sarcoma virus contained a seco...

The design problem addressed in this study involves simultaneous optimization of two structures for the locations of joints and joint attributes (assembly synthesis), while investigating the possibility of sharing some of the components among two products (design for modularity). A genetic algorithm is employed for the solution of the problem. The objective function attempts to minimize the red...
